Chapter 170: Scoring Two Goals Per Game, What Kind of Monster Is This?!
Seeing Ulloa rushing to the corner flag area to celebrate wildly, the Manchester United generals on the field stood in place one by one, as if they had completely lost their fighting spirit.
And Van Gaal, who was on the sidelines, also sighed helplessly.
If Mahrez's point creation only puts Manchester United in a passive situation;
Then, Ling Feng's two-foot cross within five minutes was the murderer who directly and completely destroyed the generals of Manchester United!
Three goals behind, Manchester United's generals looked at each other, but they were full of helplessness.
Among them, Rojo's expression was slightly sluggish, just panting, and he looked at Ling Feng who was celebrating with his teammates.
Made, why is this kid so hard to guard against?!
Originally, Mahrez, who was skilled at his feet, had enough to eat a pot of dribbling on the wing.
After changing formations, Ling Feng, who switched to the right, was even more difficult to defend!
Because, compared to Mahrez, Ling Feng's style of play is more simple and direct:
Either take advantage of the fact that you haven't stepped forward to press and directly cross at 45 degrees!
Either when he stepped forward to grab, a soup shop opened up the footspace and crossed directly!
And after a few rounds, he was shocked to find that he couldn't keep up with Ling Feng's movements at all!
If you don't get started, you won't be able to stop Ling Feng's soup at all.
However, after pulling twice and taking the initiative to apply for a Topaz God of War card from the referee, he didn't dare to start again.
He was afraid that he would be sent off directly.
It was because of this that Ling Feng was able to cross more unscrupulously.
In just ten minutes from the change of formation to the goal, Ling Feng passed seven crosses on the right side.
Every cross was a dangerous one and caused a stir in the United penalty area.
And scoring goals is just a matter of course.
Of course, the sudden collapse of Manchester United is largely due to Pearson's bold change of formation and change of play!
In a mature team, there can't be only one formation and tactics.
There should also be alternate formations and tactics, and the formations and tactics should be adjusted according to different opponents.
This 442 formation and tactics are Leicester City's second tactics!
There are three types of football coaches, to put it simply.
One is to select players based on formation and tactics, and the representative figures are Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho.
One is to choose the formation and tactics according to the players, and the representative figures are Ferguson and Ancelotti.
And the last one is the legendary XJBT!
The representative figure is Juventus coach "A" Allegri!
Of course, there are many head coaches who repeatedly jump sideways in the first two.
Most of the world's famous coaches have their own set of tactical theories and systems.
However, not every club manager has a boss behind him who is willing to fully support him.
Not every club manager can wave a cheque and buy a player in the transfer market to fit his tactical system.
So, sometimes they have to watch the food and eat.
It is to formulate what formations and tactics according to what players are on hand, so as to play the tactical effect you want!
And Leicester City coach Pearson is a loyal fan of the second type!
The second style of coaching requires the head coach to have a good understanding of the playing style and characteristics of the players in the match, and to give the players a certain amount of freedom and space to make full use of them in order to develop appropriate tactics.
Of course, when there is a top talent like Ling Feng in the team, the head coach's job is much easier.
What Pearson has to do is to focus on Ling Feng as the core of the team, so as to formulate a formation and tactics that allow him to give full play!
Because, as long as Ling Feng is comfortable, the team's offense will not have any problems, and it will be able to lead the team to victory!
Therefore, what he and the coaching staff have to do is to tailor different tactics for Ling Feng, so that he can give full play to his amazing talent.
As for the next, it's up to Ling Feng and the other players on the field!
And Ling Feng has also used his dominant performance on the field again and again to prove that he is the super thigh of Leicester City!

With Ulloa extending the score to three goals, the balance of victory in Leicester's favour has been tipped in Leicester's side.
Even so, Van Gaal decided to give it a go!
It is worth mentioning that, perhaps to protect the confidence of young players, he did not replace Blackett, who made a series of mistakes in this game.
Instead, Evans was replaced with the only substitute centre-back on the bench, Smalling.
Then he replaced Rojo, who was blown up by Ling Feng, and replaced it with the talented defender Luke Shaw, who just transferred from Southampton this summer.
Finally, replace Falcao and bring on Mata!
Mata's appearance has greatly increased Manchester United's midfield control.
Although Mata's dribbling skills are average, he is very good at passing, vision, and running without the ball, and is especially good at small-range crossing.
Coupled with Di Maria's advance, Manchester United's attack suddenly became more threatening.
In the 83rd minute of the game, Di Maria collided with Mata at the edge of the penalty area and dribbled into the penalty area, but was knocked down by Moore, who was eager to grab it.
The referee decisively awarded a penalty!
And Rooney got it all in one fell swoop and pulled a goal back!
Seeing that Lu Xiaopang didn't celebrate, but ran straight to the goal, picked up the ball and ran to the middle circle, and the fans of the visiting team also sent bursts of applause.
It doesn't matter if you lose, but you can't lose that spirit in your heart!
This is the spirit of the Red Devils that has been carried forward by Ferguson and carried over from the Bobby Charlton era!
βCOME ONοΌβ
"The game isn't over yet!"
With Rooney's cheering and encouragement, as well as the positive drive of Luke Shaw and Juan Mata, who had just come on the pitch, Manchester United's generals have somewhat aroused some fighting spirit.
With just seven or eight minutes left in the second half, United almost pinned Leicester into a half-time bombardment.
However, under the dense defense of Leicester City's full retreat to their own half, they were never able to close the score again.
With a long whistle from the referee, the score was finally fixed at 5-3!
In the next second, both the Leicester City generals on the field and the substitutes off the field were very excited and excited.
Without him, only because the opponent they defeated was the Red Devils Manchester United!
Mahrez, who was nearby, hugged Ling Feng for the first time,
"Ling, we won!"
"Why don't you look so happy, though?"
Indeed, compared to the excitement of his teammates, Ling Feng had a breezy face.
Because in his opinion, although this Manchester United team looks very strong on paper, it is actually not good.
That is, a few superstars in the front court still have some personal ability, and they can occasionally shine.
But the backline of Evans, Blackett, Rojo and Rafael is formed.
To put it mildly, it is almost at the level of the middle of the Premier League;
It's not good to say, what kind of stinky fish and rotten shrimp are!
So, there's nothing to be excited about or excited about beating such a Red Devils.
Of course, if you think like this, you can't just say it.
That's a big blow to the self-confidence of teammates
So, in the face of Mahrez's doubts, he had to explain half-truthfully:
"I'm happy, it's just that I thought I was going to win the fight from the beginning, so I wasn't so excited."
Dropping such a sentence, Ling Feng went to shake hands with Rooney, Luke Shaw and the others.
Leaving only Mahrez, who was standing still, fell into deep thought.
γγγ
With the end of the 90-minute game, the "Blue Foxes" Leicester City won the menacing "Red Devils" Manchester United at home and won the third league win of the season!
And the process and result of this game are unexpected.
It was even more surprising than Leicester City's defeat of Everton in the first round of the Premier League!
Everton is at best a powerhouse in the Premier League, and there is no comparison with Manchester United's status.
You know, Manchester United was once the hegemon of the Premier League!
Two seasons ago, they were Premier League champions!
And now, promoted Malicester City was able to defeat the giants Manchester United and scored five goals?!
This is definitely the biggest news of this round of the Premier League!
And Ling Feng, who started the whole game and contributed one goal and two assists, was once again elected the best of the game.
At the post-match press conference, when asked by reporters about Van Gaal's opinion on Ling Feng's performance in this game, the Dutch coach also commented very seriously:
"His performance is phenomenal! Defeated us almost single-handedly. β
"In my opinion, this young man is very good, he is already one of the top players in the world!"
Van Gaal's speech made the reporters present show a little surprise.
Because, before him, there were already world-class coaches such as Arsene Wenger, Mourinho, and other world-class coaches who praised Ling Feng!
However, all the head coaches recognized Ling Feng's talent and potential.
But no one thinks that Ling Feng has reached the top level in the world.
You know, he's only nineteen!
Only five Premier League games!
This is top-notch?!
A reporter stretched out his hand to ask a question, and immediately asked:
"Then can I understand that if Manchester United have a chance to sign Ling Feng, you will make a move?"
"Of course, there is no doubt about it! I think with his current strength, he can start any team in any league in Europe! β
Van Gaal's speech made even Pearson, who was sitting on the sidelines, frown.
He vaguely felt that Van Gaal, the old Dutchman, was playing with some bad idea.
However, he didn't expect that it was Van Gaal diverting his attention!
Only by touting Ling Feng, the British Emperor star, who has a household registration book, can Manchester United lose to a promoted horse and lose unjustly.
In this way, the media will be busy touting Ling Feng, a domestic talent, and will not point the finger at himself and the team's sluggish performance.
Although it is the first time to coach in the Premier League.
However, in less than two months, he had already learned the power of the British media.
After a bad start, he came under a lot of pressure.
The verbal and written criticism of the British media is overwhelming and overwhelming.
Especially the famous ones of Manchester United, it's good to win, but after losing, I like to come out and force the most.
Therefore, for the sake of himself and the team, he had no choice but to push Ling Feng into the spotlight and let him bear the "baptism" of the media
And this trick, for the British media, which has always liked to tout their own players, is simply someone who sends a pillow just after they want to fall asleep!
In their opinion, coaches and players from other countries praise their own players, and they are also honored.
In times of peace, football is a war between countries without gunpowder!
Football has become the sustenance for England to regain its empire and national glory.
Any player who excels in football deserves to be seen as a hero!
Therefore, every time a talented young player emerges, the British media will spare no effort to tout a wave, and by the way, brush a wave of presence in world football.
It seems that by doing so, they can once again pick up a glimmer of long-lost imperial glory
That evening, the BBC aired the latest episode of Matchday.
The program team also placed the highlights of this game in the middle of the program as a key broadcast clip.
In the program, Premier League goalscorer Alan Shearer was invited as a guest to comment on the wonderful battle between the Blue Foxes and the Red Devils.
Maybe it was Leicester City who won the game, and Lineker, the host of the show as a staunch and famous Blue Foxes, looked in good spirits.
"Alain, what do you think we should pay attention to in this game?"
Faced with Lineker's question, Alain Shearer immediately replied:
"Leicester's attack, of course!"
"As a promoted team that was in the Championship last season, they were too aggressive and too efficient in attack!"
Van Gaal believes that this defeat is entirely due to Ling Feng's brilliance. What do you think? β
"There is no doubt that Ling Feng is a talented player! Perhaps the best of England's age group. β
"However, he is still young and there is still a lot of room for improvement. In particular, his technique and finishing ability at his feet need to be worked on. β
"You mean, you don't agree with Louis van Gaal's statement that Ling Feng is not a top player in the world?"
'Well, he's only 19 years old and he's already done amazing in the Premier League. In my opinion, at least not yet, though. β
After a pause, Alan Shearer did not forget to add: "I envy Vardy. β
"Oh, why?"
"If Ling had given me a pass, I'm sure I would have been able to score more goals in a single season!"
The next day, all major media, newspapers and magazines really reported on this up-and-down battle in the process!
Not surprisingly, most of the media joined in touting Ling Feng.
Among them, the Times published a photo of Ling Feng waving to the stands after scoring a goal on the sports page, with a concise headline:
"Ling is the protagonist again!"
The "Daily Mail" intuitively listed Ling Feng's personal data:
After the match against Manchester United, Ling Feng once again set several new records.
Five starts in the league, contributing three goals and eight assists!
At the same time, he became the first player in the Premier League and the top five leagues to score more than 10 goals (goals or assists) this season!
He also became the first player in Premier League history to have an assist in his first five Premier League games!
Averaged two goals per game!!
Such a terrifying efficiency can't help but make everyone exclaim:
"What kind of monster is this?!"
Thank you for the tip of the "Eagle of the Buddha's Family"!
Boom!
